Tm the Henazp of the 25th ultimo there was published @ letter from Panama, in which the writer says that *the people of Panama leok upon the conduct of General Worran and Senor 1. M. Hurtado with disgust, on account of the charges they have made against General Mosque- va,” &c., &e. In justice to these gentlemen, I can assure you that they are highly esteemed by every respectable family in this sity, and as they all belong to the conservative party— except the Arosemenas—they approve of the conduct of Beneral Herran and Mr. Hurtado; consequently the state- ment in the letter referred to is false.

Francisco Fabrega, Commander of ihe Second di- ‘wision of the troops of Governor Guardia, had made pro- to the Provisional Governor, Senor Manuel Diaz, for peace, and that Diaz had declined to ac- ‘wept his terms. Since then the Secretary of State has rephed officially to the letter of Colonel Fabrega, and in- forms bim that it will be n for his commissioner to produce the proper authority from Governor Guardia before they can make any treaty. Governor Diaz’s plan is to force Guardia to surrender ‘and give up the arms at Santiago de Veraguas.

The Governor immediately complied with tbe request, and ‘they went to Chagres, arrested the murderers, brought them te Janama and bad them tried and shot. This prompt action had the proper effect. For mapy years ‘Wereaftcr we bad no more murders on the isthmus. At the massacre of sth of April, 1856, Diaz saved the lives of many Ame- Yieans, and the next morning and during that might his house was crowded with womea and children apd wounded that be had rescued from the hands of the mob of assassins. At that time Senor Diaz was not Go- vernor.

If it were possible to depend upon guerillas subsiding after two or three defeats, or after being compelled to quit their old stamping ground and skedaddle toward the South, the record of guerilla operations im this State | might be closed this month. General Schofiehi-has suc") eveded admirably in compelling the various gangs who lately infested Northern and Western Missouri to fly like Dbunted felons toward Arkansas. Temporary reverses have mot discouraged our men in the least. The gangs lately assembled in North Missouri have all been scatter- ed, and if the newly organized militia do their @uty in the several eounties all the men who are now seeking the security of their ‘homed | after s month of guerilla service, will be caught and pun- ished. The punishment meted out in a majority of cases ‘will be. death. The counties west of the Pacific Railroad terminus, at Sedalia, and south of the Missouri river as far as the Osage, Bave also been delivored of the chief gangs of guerillas who were lately devastating that re From the best information obtainable in this city.Jt ap- pears that the robels, after collecting to the number of nearly five thousaud. under General Hughes, Colenels Quantrel, Boyd, Tho:avson, Upton, Hays and ‘Cockerell planned ‘a rapid advance on Independence, Lexington, and Sedhlia. They hoped to capture sufficient arms, including artillery and ammunition, to arm and equip ten thousand men. The attack on Independence was successful through the alleged treachery of the commanding officer, Colonel Buel. The fight at Love Jack ‘ie, im Jackson county, was successful through the overwhelming numerical supe- riority of the rebels, They lost Gen. Hughes at Indepen- dence, and Colonels Boyd and Thompson were wounded. ‘The arrival of reinforcements saved Lexington, and the delay saved Sedalia. In the meantime Gen. Schofield, in connection with Gen. Blunt, of Kansas, set several columns in motion to cut off the retreat of the rebels. ‘The troops composing the late Indian expedition moved from Fort Scott into Bates county, Missouri, and Col. Fitz Henry Warren, with twelve bey grr of the First Iowa eavalyy and four cgmpanies of Missouri State Militia, the crossing of ihe Osage river. ‘On Wodueaday morning river. ednesday merning hour. behind the Col. Warren was only one. the rebels on and Gen. Blunt only twelve miles from their Tuesday night’s camp on south- Schoficld of a fight at the crossing of the Osage. Our forces have Pieces of artillery, while the rebels have only the two captured from Major Foster’s command at yesterday morning at Benton bar- racks which might have proved serious. It originated in ‘the refusal of some of the paroled prisoners now in camp wo do guard duty, and was principally contined to refrac- a. members of the Third Minnesota regiment, paroled at Murfreesboro, Tenn. The facts are as follows:—When the prisoners first arrived they construed their parole to mean that they must not de any kind of guard duty. The matter was referred to General Halleck, who decided that they must perform garrisgn and police guard duty, as that duty was not a militaty service for the United States ina Deliigerent sense. With this understandin; ail the men were satisfied to perform the prakcroyees | everything was working along smoothly. On Tuesday General McKean, who has command at Benton barracks, availing himself of some new light on the subject, ordered that hereafter no details of guards should be made from paroled prisoners. This yas exactly in accordance with the ideas of the mon ives, and they heard the order with delight. Meetings were held, and the mem- bers of the Third Minnesota, in particular, agreed to sustain each other in refusing to goon guard. Asa de- tail for Wednesday bad been made on Tuesday before General McKean’s order was issued it stood binding, of eourse; but on Wednesday morning the call for the detail ‘was not obeyed. A guard, with loaded muskets, was called for, and the refractory men and the sergeants of the companies to which they belonged were arrested and put in the guard house. All day yesterday the affair created the greatest sensa- tion. Lieut. Wm. M. Wherry, of the reguiar army, who was in immediate charge of the paroled men, exercised the greatest Kindness toward the men, and went among them personally, explaining the requirements of their po- sition, At the same time Gen. McKean, on discovering ‘that his order was at variance with Gen. Halleck’s de- cision, reyoked it, which caused a fresh ebullition of teel- ing among the men. They threatened mutiny and were quite viclent for a while. Finding the officers firm, how- ever, they began gradually to yield, and last evening were quite docile. Ail the men but two promised to go on guard, and the affair ig assuming a peaceable shape once more, A general order from the War Department for the government of paroled prisoners is sadly needed w make their treatment uniform. The town of Portland, in Calloway county, North Mis- souri, was captured by Cobb’s guerillas’ last Friday. He proceeded to rob ail the stores where he found any- thing his men wanved. Thoy compelled A. H. Henderson, @ wealthy Union man, to open his safe, aud took from it a pistol and some lead. ’ Strange to say they took no money, Cobb informing Mr. Henderson that be had more money than he could conveniently use. After he left, on com- Paring notes, it was found that Cobb had taken twice as much from secessionists as from Union men. His activity tw that vicinity was shortlived, however. Ua Monday Colonel Smart, with two hundred and fiiy State militia, fell in with Cobb’s gang near Reelaviile, in the samo county, and routed bim, with a severe loss. One of Cobb’s captains, named MeCouneli, from War- ren county, was killed, and his whole party dis- persed. They were pursued by Smart's mon. Soringdeld is now strongly fortilied. The forts are three in number, on the west and south sides of the town, and have been erected under the superintendence of Colonel M. L. Harrison, of the ¥irst Arkansas cavalry, late of the Second Wisconsin. The fact was long since ablished that Springfield is the key to Southwestern Misbouri, The Union have contributed negroes to assist in thy work. and slaves belonging to rebels have been improssed into the service, ‘The rebel siege of Major Hubbard's forces at Newton ia, on Oliver's prairie, in Newtou county, mi ed in a former letter to the Praatp, was raised by a vigorous sortie from the camp Hold by Major Hubbard and by the arrival of the reiniorcements from Springfield under Cotonei King.

Having heard that the Twenty-first Missouri had mutinied, refusing to do duty, I went to Chewalla, where they-are statioued, under the command of Colonel Moore, who had a leg shot off at Shilob. Everything was outwardly calm on my arrival, the men having returned to;duty. The cause of the disturb- ance seems to have been the laws under which they wero enlisted—the militia laws of Missouri—in which they are styled State troops, although paid, armed and glothed by the United States government. The mon appear to sup- pore that they were to be used only for the defence of Missouri and would not be compelled to go into any other ‘State, and they censure some of their officers very se. verely for having, as they say, ceceivea them grossly, Several regiments from that State are, from what I can learn, very much dissatisfied for the same reason. ‘The night before I reached Chewalla some thirty bales of cotton, with the gin house, gin and everything con- nected with it, were destroyed by fire—the work of ma- rauding guerillas, who bad probably been informed that it was about to be disposed of tothe government. The Property belonged to a Mr. Hooker, and was situated within half a mile of Colonel Moore’s headquarters. The Perpetrators were not discovered, as usual. All the cot ton in the country is being taken possession of by the government by order.of General Grant, the owners re- |. ceiving certificates of the value and amount so taken. This appears to be rather satisfactory than otherwise te » the planters, who are in nightly fear of the destruction of .it' By roving bands ef rebels, who infest the country in every direction. Those who raise any cotton at all place their whole reliance upon it for the means of procuring their winter’s provisions and clothing for their families and-servants. Of course if no return is realized more or Jess suffering must ensue. I found nearly all tho pianta- tions mostly deserted by the negroes, who have managed te escape into our lines. One man, at whose house I stopped, had lost thirty-two—the whole nunrber heowned. He had a very large crop of corn, &., which it would be impossible for him to harvest, being entirely without the pecessary labor. Others 1 found inthe same situation. Tbe white population fit for work are all in the rebel service, and the ne- groes bave all ran off. The best plan, it strikes me, to fix this matter up is for the government to'take possession of the cotton and corn Selds,and set the runaway ne- groes.to work on them. We would then have what cot- ton was raised and corn in abundance. Compensate the owners as the powers that be see proper, but by all means let us have the corn and cotton. The country in the neighborhood of Chewalla is handsome and the svil fertile. The crops appear very flourishing, and thero is fruit in untold quantities. Ali tho plantations present a strange peculiarity to a Northern man: every corn or cotton field is a forest of standing trees, all of them dead, having been cut entirely around the but to the depth of Bae and two inches. 1 ‘inquired the reason for Jeaving them standing, and was informed that (he labor of clearing was too great, and that as they did not take any nourishment from the earth it was just as weil, and did not affect the crops. Some- ‘times accidents pen by tho falling of these Aead monarchs. Every little while some person is killed while riding along the roads or at work on the farms; but such th: are nothing compared with the difficulty of removing them in apy other way. Everything { see in Southern life convinces me that the ‘ene great aim is to live as well and make as much money as possible with the least possible exertion. The com- plaints are grievous from those families whose slaves have ran off. The dainty dames who never knew what 't was to make a fire or cook a break‘ast, I have seen labu:- ing and perspiring over the washtub. No wonder the Southern ladies are bitterly opposed to us; it could not be otherwise. If they could procure white assistance they would not take itso much to heart; but of course unat is impossible—such a thing never was beard of—and the poor white woman is entirely unfit for house service: for, generally speaking, a more usoless, miserab.e and dirty set of human beings I never have seen. Gcneral Grant has just issued an order allowing to each company in this district of West Tennessee four men for servants, who may be seized wherever found. ‘The order probibite the taking of women and children» This will relieve the mea somewhat, but I am afraid the negro will not be much benefitted by his change of mas- ters. Many, instead of one, will of course result in just roe er of kicks, and 1 troller to think the ey will soon become as anx:! to escape 1) his new servitude as he was from his old. re General Cadwallader has assumed command of this post, and is carrying out a thorough system of reform in many of the minor departments, The police regulations have never been properly carried out, and the sanitary condition of the camps and town is not what it should be in consequence. Now that the most unhealthy months— August and, September—are upon us, this becomes a mat- ter of the irst importance, and every precaution should be taken to guard the health of the soldier, who seldom or never thinks of guarding it himseif. Under the preseut admiuietration this matier is being promptly attexded to. ‘The Mobile and Ohio Railroad has been carrying im- mense quantities of private stores here, the goo’s of sutlers, traders, &c.; but this has now been put a stop to, and nothing but government Property will henceforth be transported over the road, We hope this order will befully carried out until our ir is 80 supplied ag to be beyond all fear of any acci- it. Asmall portion of tresselwork was again destroyed by guerillas on Wednesday, but with no result except the detention of the train from Columbus for some hours, Nobody was caught. On the Memphis and Cuarloston Raiiroad the track is very frequently injured. The rebels keep up continual series of depredations, with no fur- ther resuit than interruption between here and Tuscum- bia in the regularity of the trains. A few days ago, near the latter place, three or four of our soldiers rode up to & house and asked fora drink of water. The lady pro- cured them some, and while oue of the soldiers was drioking the owner of the premises doliburately shot him dead. He was immediately hung by the enraged comrades of the dead mau. Cannonading was heard last night in the direction of Rienzi. The cause, however, das not yet transpired. Fighting has been expected for some time in that vicini- ty, 48 there is a considerable body of rebels near there; £0 that we are anxiously waiting for the aews, Our cavalry are somewhat active since the late ‘do something” policy has be@ adopted. On Saturday last a detachment of one hundred and forty of the Kieventh Ubaois brought into camp twenty-two secesh prisoners and thirty-two horses, which they captared near Bethel, in the adjoining county to this. While in that vicinity the boys bad rather an amusing adventure, One of the pickets saw several persons golug into a respectable look- ing farmhouse, and he concluded something was wring. He immediately notified his commanding oiticer , who quict ly took a party and surrounded the house, and, Sabre and revolver in hand, promptly entered, expecting to toxke quite a hanl. Judge his cuagrin when, upon examination, he found a young mother who bad been reinforcing the rebel confederacy in the shape of @ fine boy and who was just receiving the congratilations of the family friends Tipon the euccessful issue of the aifair. The captain bolted. He dont like to hear much about the case, nor the boys either kverything is quiet in the camps, tho weather being terribly Let, so much 80 that but little dritiing is dene, and the troops amuse themselves by lying under the trees, play: ing cards, reading or sleoptug, as the case may bo.’ It is aitogether improbabio that any movement wil be made by this army until Uctober. The heat of (he weather and other causes will prevent an active campaign before that time; in the meantime the forces will be drilled, aud everything prepared fer vigorous operations.

Mewrms, Tenn., August 11, 1862. Finance—the Union Banle of Tennessee—Religious—Dr Grunay and His Pivck—The News from Baton Rouge— Postal Matters-—Seizure of Cotton, &e. In my last letter f made allasion to the curious condi. tion of financial affairs in Memphis, I rested from the short commentary under the delicf that the subject would not again come ap for review, but ehortly after mailing that letter I found a new feature developed It seome that the Union Tank of Tonuseses, not satisfied with email earnings in othor parts of th State, las reopened its o in Memphis and ronowed the business it mbandened at the time the Unicn floet arrived. Soveral gentlemen from the Kast, who wore boarding at the Gayoso, paid their recont bills ay tho establisiment with sight drafts on New York. On Savurday these drafts were returned to thom by the hotel clerk, who assigned the reason for a doing that the bank would only give Yennosree money for the faco of the drafis, Investiyation showed that the Union Bank was willing avd afixious to take the drafts, but would only give credit o their face valag in Tennessee paper, This paper can be Dought, at twenty-five per cemt discount for Treasury notes. Sight exchange on New York is scarce, and with Proper endorsers will readily bring two per cent premium | Over “greembacks.” ‘Thus the Union Bank makes the ‘snug little profit of twenty-seven dollare on each hundred that it handles in guaranteed sight exchange. How much ‘more it would like to pecket if it were afforded the oppor- tunity it is difficult to say. There isno other bank here Going business, and as the managers of the Union Bank areal strongly tainted with secession proclivities they evince a desire to do little else than swindle the ‘North erm horde.” There is a fine opening for enterprising +] brokers from the North who will’ be willing to deal as. justly as is consistent with monetary transactions and bear themselves as honestly as good bankers can. Rev. Dr. Grundy, of the Second Presbyterian church, preached in his own pulpit yesterday gor the first time since Christmas. Dr. Grundy has been engaged in the ministry in Memphis for several years, and is leoked upon as one of the most talented men in Weat Tenucasee, Ho is a Kentuckian by birth, and since the outbreak of the rebellion has been firm in his friendship for tho Union. When the war first commenced he wrote and published several articles over bis own signature, in which he deprecated the troubles, and showed the fal- lacy of the arguments advanced in faver of seces- sion, In hia ‘pulpit he was careful to take a neutrat , and, while holding sympathy for the Union, endeayored to avoid giving offence to those of different views. In his prayers he was constant in iinploring Divine aid to a right understanding Of the great question at issue. “if we are right in what we havo done, make us to know it; if we are wrong, con- ‘vince us of our error,’ was his entre aty in each sabbath morning prayer. Secession Christianity could not admit possibility of wrong in the inaugeration of civil war and the dissolution of the Union, and Ur. Grundy was politely informed that such a prayer was not in accordance with the piety of eo his parishioners. For his refasal to be chetated in form of Divine worship his presby- tery dismissed him from the church where he had so long been laboring for the welfare of those under hia charge. A large ‘portion of his congregation withdrew with him, ‘and for several months past have held their meetings in Odd Follow’s Hall. At the time Genera) Wallace arrived here he took pos- session of the church from which Dr. Grundy had been expelled, and with the aid of a file of soldiers installed the chapiain of an Indiana regiment to preach to citizens and others. | has repeatedly been made for the building to given up to its proprietors, but our commanders have invariabiy refused unless Dr. Grundy were first taken back to preside over it, Last week the friends of that gentleman mado application for the church, with the special provisiou that the Doctor was to be reinstated. General Sherman promptly ‘complied with the request, Grundy ouce more eat under his own vine and fig tree. ‘The directors of the church are nearly ail secession in sent and wore prominent in the effort for his re- moval. yy wore deeply mortified at the prospect of their pastor’s return, and evinced their dislike by at- ‘tempting to carry out curious schemes for obtaining the ‘keys of the house before they should fall jato the Due- tor’s hands. ‘he foremost man in manwuvres was nr. Kirtland wrote a long and artfully worded letter to Genorai Sherman, with the intention of proventing Dr. Grundy’s-return. He afterward called at the quart master’s office and endeavored to get the keys, by aseur- ing Major McDonald, the officer in charge, that he was the proper person to receive them,and that Dr.G. had no wish or desire to preach in the house. But Major McDonald was not to be taken ip,and Mr. Kirtland de- parted with his hopes ungratified. The church will be Tegularly used by its prosent pastor for some time to come. * There are rumors in town this morning, all of them comingfrom rebel sources, contirming the story of the capture of Baton Rouge. You will be likely to learn the truth concerning it via New Orleans much earlier than by Mewphis and Cairo.

The accounts that reach us through the rebol lines are always 50 distorted that no reliance can be placed upon them.
